Eurasian Coot

Fulica atra

ABA Rarity Code: 5

The first Pribilof, Alaska, and North American record was found in late October, which matches the pattern of vagrant coots and gallinules in Alaska, and specifically in the Bering Sea region. This one record involves a bird initially seen on St. George Island, which was subsequently found on St. Paul Island (or remarkably a second individual was in the islands at the same time) and collected.
